03 August 2018 Dear All,

I have seen that when booking domestic hotels from make my trip/Expedia GST is mentioned in invoice and the option comes to Add GST number, whereas when we book International hotels then GST is not mentioned.Is GST applicable when hotel is booked outside India .

Can a tour operator doing booking for Hotels outside India is liable to charge GST on Principal to principal basis

When a Tour operator in India pays for Hotel booking abroad e.g Hilton London, does the Tour operator in India needs to pay GST in RCM basis.if yes and then at what rate.

Thanks in Advance for the expert opinion
